So ... Grab a Coffee, Take a Seat and

Like other writers and pundits, I've composed articles on a variety of topics, covering many aspects of the human condition around this planet.

I must admit I have a penchant for concentrating on social, political, economic and religious issues in the context of the American scenario, particularly. And why not, seeing as how the United States of America is still the most powerful country?

Moreover, having spent twenty years living in Canada, where - like all residents there - I was exposed to much of what happens south of that border, I think I eventually knew America and its culture quite well. Twice across the whole country by auto - to most large cities - helped considerably; as did three times to Las Vegas, Chicago and other visits to small towns in Florida, New England, and the Mid-West.

Even with USA in my critical sights, though, I take pains to ensure other countries receive their fair share of critique. Along the way, I do try to inject a suitable amount of humor - not only to amuse, but also to help alleviate the occasional writerly sting.

So ... all of the listed articles are in PDF format. Do, by all means, send any of the following, as is, to other readers you know. Please acknowledge, when necessary, your use of any copying or quoting from any of the texts; and, because you have free use, please ensure other readers you know have the same opportunity.

The above is not the whole kit and caboodle, by any means. Some prior articles are simply not particularly relevant or events have overtaken previous analysis. However, I continue to write and will upload other, suitable articles when ready to publish here only.

Here's the novel app about challenging words used in literary fiction:

Well ... let me take you there with my non-fiction narrative (aka memoir) about the last years of Australia's colonial life in the 1960s. And where I was a Cadet Patrol Officer from 1961 to 1964.
